Employment & HR

Employers are confronted daily with a range of human resource issues. For employers with cross-border operations, these issues become even more complex.

Managing the commercial pressures of running a business and getting the people part of the business right can be a delicate balance.

We help senior teams and HR professionals at every stage of the employment lifecycle, whether it’s immediate operational support as individual problems arise, strategic advice on organisational development or implementing preventative measures and solutions.

We also work closely with clients on workforce and performance issues, such as HR audits, in-house training and executive coaching programmes.

Working with FTSE listed companies, SMEs, public bodies and not-for-profit organisations, our clients rely on our technical expertise and pragmatic, no-nonsense advice to help them mitigate risk and achieve their business goals. We also advise individuals on executive service agreements and settlement agreements.

We cover all aspects of employment law and people management:

• Discrimination and harassment

• Restructures and redundancies
• Employment tribunal claims
• Strategic workforce and succession planning
• Share scheme and option arrangements
